Let’s Begin . . . Students will work in teams of 2 or 3 people

Plan for the month. . . . Mission 1 Look for 6 images about Madrid. They have to be exclusive. So the fastest team will get their images. Prepare the images for the Scratch scree size. Mission 2 Make the collage with GIMP. The tour should start with the collage as the main backdrop. Mission 3 The character should be able to interact with the user via speech bubbles, and the user has to be able to enter responses. Mission 4 The user should choose where they want to start the tour and the way to select the places. Mission 5 When the user selects a place, the picture associated with it should become the backdrop and some information, which you are going to find, will be presented on the screen. Background music to engage

Plan for the month. . . . Mission 6 Create a counter to make sure that the ‘tourist’ visits all the ‘places’ and if they repeat one the counter shouldn´t increase the account number. Mission 7 When the user has finished the tour, a quiz will start. Mission 8 Design the quiz. Be creative and original. Mission 9 The tour guide should let the user know if the answer is right or wrong. Show the quiz score. Mission 10 Present the Interface to other teams. Background music to engage

The high school Francisco de Goya-La Elipa has a problem! The school has organised an exchange with a school from Boston, the students were coming next month but because of some problems they are coming next week and the welcome day everybody is busy with the open door´s day tasks.

You have been hired to help! Technology to the rescue! Since the technology department has some interesting robots, the Information and tourism department have hired you to design a virtual interactive tour guide to take them into a virtual tour around Madrid.

Virtual interactive tour guide challenge Goal: Programme a virtual interactive tour guide around 6 interesting places in Madrid. Criteria: Use Scratch Use 6 pictures about Madrid Use GIMP to make a collage with the 6 photos. Use the Engineering Design Process for the challenge Present to the class Constraints: Images are exclusive. The fastest team will get the images. The computer won´t be switched on until the design plan is delivered. Every group member must work in the computer everyday Deadline: 10 days

Virtual interactive tour guide challenge Constraints when presenting to the class: Must use at least 5 of the vocabulary terms from above. Every group member must speak. Presentation should take 5 minutes.

You have a limited amount of time to do this. . . So you must be resourceful. And you must work fast. Can your team save the Francisco de Goya-La Elipa reputation?

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 1: Look for 6 images about Madrid. They have to be exclusive. So the fastest team will get their images. Clues for students: Open the file: Look for images with high quality.docx

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 1: Prepare the images for the Scratch screen size. Clues for students: Open the file: Scale images up and down with GIMP.docx

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 2: Make the collage with GIMP. Clues for students: Open the file: Create a collage with GIMP.docx

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 2: The tour should start with the collage as the main backdrop. Clues for students: You need to programme something inside the backdrop to establish the initial conditions

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 2: Programme inside the backdrop

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 3: Programme the sprite to make it interact with the user. The user should be able to enter responses Clues for students:

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 3: Programme in the main sprite

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 4: The user should choose where they want to start the tour and the way to select the places. Clues for students: You can use buttons

MAIN ACTIVITY: Missions 5: When the user selects a place the picture associated with it, should become the backdrop. Clues for students: You can send messages and you have to hide de buttons. Option 1 Option 2

MAIN ACTIVITY: Missions 4 and 5: Programme inside every button option 1

MAIN ACTIVITY: Missions 4 and 5: Programme inside every button option 2

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 5: When the user selects a place, the picture associated with it should become the backdrop and the sprite should present some information about the place. Clues for students: The programme should be inside the main sprite (tour guide).

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 5:Programme in the main sprite option 1

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 5:Programme in the main sprite option 2

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 6: Create a counter to detect when the user has finished the tour. The user can visit the places as many times as he wishes. Clues for students: You have to use variables (the counter and one for each button, 7 in total)

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 6: Programme in the main sprite. You have to repeat the programme on the right for all the pictures.

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 6: Programme inside the red button (Almudena) You have to repeat this programme for all the buttons

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 7: When the user has finished the tour, a quiz will start. Design the quiz. Clues for students: Check the value of the counter

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 7: Programme in the main sprite. You have to repeat the programme for all the pictures.

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 8:Design a quiz with 6 questions, one per picture. Be creative and original Clues for students: There are many ways of doing it. This is the simplest way to do it but the least creative and original.

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 8: Programme in the main sprite. A simple option

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 9: The tour guide should let the user know if the answer is right or wrong. Clues for students:

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 9: Programme in the main sprite. A simple option

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 9: The tour guide should show the quiz score Clues for students: This is the simplest way to do it but the least creative and original.

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 9: Programme in the main sprite at the end of the quiz

MAIN ACTIVITY: Mission 10: Present your virtual tour guide to the rest of the class Constraints when presenting to the class: Must use at least 5 of the vocabulary terms from above. Every group member must speak. Presentation should take 5 minutes.
